DesignWorkshop™ • MacUser Eddy Finalist Award Winner (1993)
Artifice is founded on the belief that good tools are clear, simple, and powerful. DesignWorkshop, our lead product, is a power design tool for environment designers. DesignWorkshop uses a live 3D-crosshair interface to bring click-and-drag ease of use to floating-point accurate, feature-based 3D solid modeling. MacWEEK Magazine (4-25-94) called this "the most direct 3D interface short of a dataglove". With DesignWorkshop, for the first time it is really possible to design buildings in live 3D.
Picking up where other conceptual modelers like ModelShop and upFront left off, DesignWorkshop sets a new standard for architectural modeling fluency. Artifice is continually developing the capablities of DesignWorkshop, and cooperates with other Macintosh software companies to provide the best in optimized multi-vendor design solutions.
